| Yaz günü üşüdüm ben yandum da tutuştum ben | I was cold in the summer, I burned and caught fire |
| Aklumi aldun baştan düz yollarda düştüm ben | You took my Aklumi from the start I fell on straight roads |
| Derede alabaluk okkaluktur okkaluk | Trout in the creek okkaluk okkaluk |
| E kız anan baban etmedi mi sevdaluk | E girl, didn't your mother and father not love? |
| Yazi yazarum yazi kuşlarun kanadina | I write on the wings of birds |
| O ne kadar güzelluk kurban olayim sana | How much beauty should I sacrifice to you |
| Ha boyle ha bu yana gel beraber gidelum | Ha |
| Yeter söyleduğumuz biraz horon edelum | Enough we said, let's do a little horon |
| Dereden geçeyiken başum aldi sazlara | While I was crossing the stream, my head fell on the reeds |
| Baba evlendur beni aklum kaldi kizlara | Dad, get me married, I've lost my mind to the girls |
